Mets\u00e4 Board has revised its sustainability strategy for 2030: New targets included the full use of certified wood fibre, a reduction in logistics emissions and increased promotion of diversity and occupational safety.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mets\u00e4 Board has updated its strategic sustainability targets for 2030. The new and revised targets relate in particular to logistics emissions, workforce diversity and occupational safety. The aim is to further strengthen sustainable business practices and build on the progress made in recent years.<\/p>\n

The last adjustment to the sustainability strategy was made two years ago. Since then, developments have been comprehensively monitored using various indicators. Progress already achieved includes, for example, an increase in the proportion of certified wood fibres to 92%.<\/p>

  • Occupational safety<\/strong>The \u201ezero accidents\u201c target now applies not only to the company's own employees, but also to External contractors<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  • Diversity and corporate culture<\/strong>: Introduction of the new Mets\u00e4 for All Index<\/strong>, which measures diversity, equality and integration.<\/li>\n
